I can see slightly similarities in between Hold on, and Peacemaker.

My two cents:

Last Night On Earth sounds like Because by the Dave Clark 5.

21 Guns sounds like a combination of All the Young Dudes by Mott The Hoople and Telephone Line by ELO.

Before The Lobotomy sounds like Mr. Lonely by Bobby Vee.

Restless Heart Syndrome sounds like New Years Day by U2.

The Static Age sounds like The Jonas Brothers.

By the way, Gloria is not a song by Patti Smith! It's by a 60's band called Them (with Van Morrison on vocals). Patti Smith did a cover of it. You kids. :lol:

I dunno if :P or :rolleyes: is appropriate.

Opps. I meant Bobby Vinton.

And I meant Sunday Bloody Sunday, not New Years Day. Damn, I should take my meds more often! :wacko:

"The Static Age" on 21CBD sounds similar to "Church On Sunday" and "Deadbeat Holiday" hah but it's really good! :)

You could read the previous posts. This has now been stated about 5 times on each page.

Not to be rude or anything

For some reason "21 Guns" reminds me of "complicated" by avril Lavigne... the beginning atleast...

Posted

this whole thread makes me sad.

The begining of Reject and Hearts Collide is similar (even some of the singing)

Posted
the beggining of Before The Lobotomy is almost identical to the beggining of Nickelback's Far Away.

Thats true i just compared them they do ha

Posted
The intro for Know Your Enemy sounds exactly like the intro for a Bikini Kill song named Rebel Girl:

I knoooow!

I was like "e;hsgjrkeanjgfhje;!!!" when I heard it.

Basically Rebel Girl is a rougher version than KYE.

its a VERY common drum progression/beat

My mom commented the other day on how Restless Heart Syndrome kinda sounds like any old Jewish tune.

You're right! They're big fans of Bikini Kill, Billie's mentioned them many times. There's a Bikini Kill album called 'Reject All American' that must've inspired that line in Reject, and their lead singer Kathleen Hanna sings the intro on Letterbomb. Billie's sideband Pinhead Gunpowder even have a song about her.

So it could easily be that they were at least partly inspired by Rebel Girl on Know Your Enemy, even if it is a common beat. Especially with the songs' shared themes of rebellion.

The start of Know Your Enemy and Change The World by Joan Jett and the Blackhearts sounds similar to me. :D

Did anyone already mentioned that the beginning of "21stCB" sounds exactly like "Dream Police" by Cheap Trick?http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MjMCaw4qzjg

Sry if it was aready posted. Didnt follow the thread.

lol! you're right. that's freaky.

Now that I'm listening to "Main Offender" by the Hives, I can definitely see the similarities between it and "Horseshoes and Handgrenades." I think I still prefer "Horseshoes and Handgrenades," though.

Does anybody know if Green Day are fans of the Hives?

hey is there a thread for any other songs that sound the same...not just ones off 21CB?

or even non green day songs?

I was thinking about having a mod change the title of the thread so it can be about any GD song.
